Willie Ray Blanks transforms lives  and inspires many to reach personal goals. Willie's engaging personality and ability to motivate has resulted in a dynamic new fitness program called "Willinetics". Willinetics will rock the world incorporating internal edification with body empowerment. Willie Ray Blanks was the 7th born child in a family of ten boys and five girls. Isaac and Mabeline Blanks raised their children in Erie, Pennsylvania, where their family is well known for their positive influences on the community.
About Willie Blanks
Willie graduated from Tech Memorial High School in 1976. He attended Gannon University and in 1980 was the first in his family to graduate from college. With a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Administration, he went on to work in 1980 for a public accounting firm called Cooper & Lybrand. He then in 1983 pursued internal auditing and industrial accounting at Hammermill paper Company. Willie was promoted to Controller over one of Hammermill's $50 million dollar lumber divisions, American Hardwood Industries (AHI). He remained there until International Paper Company purchased Hammermill in 1986, and began to divest and down size some Hammermill?s divisions, one of which was AHI. Willie, then went into the banking industry and was hired by PNC Bank in 1987. After being there through October 1994, PNC Bank went through a major consolidation of bank operations. At this point Willie decided to take his life savings and opened up a fitness center.
Blanks' commitment to internal empowerment and enlightenment has been a lifelong process. Throughout Willie's college years and into adulthood, he intensely studied biblical scripture and other media to increase his awareness of God and power of the human spirit. He has worked in the capacity of assistant pastor, and senior pastor, minister, and teacher for the past 20 years. 

The transition from these life experiences to Physical Fitness may seem a bit odd, but with the many changes in the banking industry and down sizing of corporate staff in the early 90's, Willie wanted to find something more fulfilling to do with his professional skills, motivational talents and spiritual gifts. His brother, Billy, was making a living in Physical Fitness, so Willie decided to take a chance. He knew if he could make this work, he could help people in a way he hadn't experienced before. Willie trained with Billy (who is now the fitness guru to the world and Tae-Bo creator). Returning to Erie, Willie started the Willie Blanks Learning and Fitness Center, incorporating his personal philosophy on fitness and health. Now the "#1 Personal Trainer  and Fitness instructor in the East", Willie gives his students more than a physical workout. He inspires all of us while reaching our spirit, mind and body. Students are empowered with the tools necessary to reach their ultimate potential for a healthy lifestyle including mental and physical fitness.
Willie has conducted several assemblies on "Physical Fitness of the Mind and Body" at high schools, middle schools, elementary schools and corporations such as PNC Bank and Erie Insurance. Recently, he participated in "National Eating Disorder Awareness Week" by speaking to the student body of California University of PA about willing themselves to a healthy lifestyle, and finishing with a fitness demonstration.
Willie received the "1999 Black Pages of Erie Small Business Man of the Year" award and has been nominated by Gannon University for the "2000 Small Business of the Year" award. Willie challenges himself to give back to his community by participating in fund raisers for organizations like MECA, and the American Cancer Society. He was recently the main instructor for the "Cincinnati Workout for Hope", benefiting the "City of Hope" research hospital.


In 1997, Willie made his stage debut in the Hallmark Hall of Fame story "The Boys Next Door", with the part of Lucian P Smith, a mentally handicapped adult man. His part revealed the challenges in today's society, for an adult man with mental limitations
Willie's ultimate goal is to share his new fitness program, Willinetics. Willinetics will motivate young and old to reach their own physical and mental potential through hard work and personal empowerment.


Finally, a Total Well-being program that incorporates mental fitness along with physical fitness. WIL-LI-NETICS is the first complete fitness program that provides internal instruction on how to prepare your mind, through the "will", to start and continue a physical fitness program. First, let me give you a brief description of what WIL-LI-NETICS is all about. I have found, through 15 years of ministry and working in corporate America, that most people seem to be unable to control the thoughts, images, and emotions that flow through their minds. The mind is the place where all of us exist, live, and fight the battles of life. With one out of every four Americans falling in the category of obesity, you could say that we are losing this mental battle. People of all ages and ethnic groups are dying every day from hypertension, diabetes and other crippling diseases that could be brought under control by simply exercising and maintaining decent eating habits daily. Fitness equipment and diet pills are not the solution. They can only assist us in maintaining a healthy body. The final solution is disciplining the mind to follow healthy thinking (i.e., as a person thinks, so he becomes, for the most part). All negative thinking, images, and emotions must be expelled from our mind and our thought process. As you can see, this kind of fitness program is rather unique.

 
WIL-LI-NETICS will benefit various groups such as individuals who are currently exercising but want to excel to a higher level, individuals who are bored with their current program and want something new and challenging, those who have started fitness programs and then quit due to lack of motivation, and individuals who have desired to start a fitness program but were intimidated by the fear of failure or the complexity of existing programs.

WIL-LI-NETICS is a fitness program that assists individuals in recognizing the power of the human psyche and certainly elevates people's awareness to another level.

Willie Blanks takes several minutes at the start of each class to inspire his students in a particular area of thought to prompt their healthy thinking about a specific topic (i.e., food cravings, overeating, under eating, daily exercise, etc.)

The following is a look at the  meaningbehind the name,











After reinforcing the aforementioned information, Willie relates this internal view with the physical aspect of "WIL-LI-NETICS".



"WIL-LI-NETICS" is a combination of Step Aerobics, kickboxing, dance, and hand-weight workout that incorporates powerful abdominals and leg work done on the floor. This is beneficial for all fitness levels.
